but i used to be beekeeper (for real), so if you have any questions, feel free to ask. i'll try to solve your bee problems.. 
Ask Vondur 
how are bees powered? I cant see a power supply so i presume they have a radio link or bluetooth or something. Wait, it's nuclear power isn't it! It's all coming together. 
Dear Vondur, 
I have a really hard time hooking up with a bee and staying with him!!! I don't mean I can't get a bee, but I just can't stand a bee for more than two weeks!!! All my friends are either in long-term relationships or they have a new bee every week. I am the only one who isn't in love with one bee, or in love with two or three different bees each week. I never seem to find a bee I really like, and when I do find a bee I try to find a way they are imperfect. My mom keeps saying it's because of previous probs with my bees and I am afraid of being hurt again, so I stay distant from bees. If what my mom said is true, how do I keep my problems with my bees from interfering with my social life? PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVICE!

Dear Vondur, 
Last week I found a lump on one of my bees, but I'm scared to go to the doctor because he might touch my bees and then everyone will say i'm a gaylord. I asked my friend about it and he said it's ok to go, because its only gay if the bees touch. I still have my doubts though, please reassure me Vondur!

Signed,
Marmaduke

THE BEES

USA/Mexico. 1979.

Director/Screenplay/Producer - Alfredo Zacharias, Photography - Leon Sanchez, Music - Richard Gillis, Special Effects - A&A Special Effects & Laurencio �Chubby� Cordero, Art Direction - Jose Rodriguez Granada. Production Company - Bee One Productions.

Cast:
John Saxon (Dr John Norman), Angel Tompkins (Sandra Miller), John Carradine (Dr Sigmund Hummel), Claudio Brook (Dr Franklin Miller), George Bellanger (Undersecretary Sam Brennan)

Plot: In a UNESCO aviary in Brazil, Brazilian bees have been crossbred with African honey bees to form a deadly new species. After a young boy is stung to death while his father is trying to steal honey, angry locals storm the laboratory. The bees are accidentally freed and the principal researcher Dr Franklin Miller stung to death. Miller�s wife Sandra travels to New York where she joins her husband's colleague Dr John Norman in trying to find a means of stopping the bees. Meanwhile the bees sting their way up the US coast, attacking the Pasadena Rose Parade and all in their path. Sandra�s uncle, eminent bee expert Dr Sigmund Hummel, realizes that the bees are intelligent.

The Bees was an opportunistic quickie made to exploit the publicity campaign for Irwin Allen�s big-budget The Swarm (1978). It was clearly made in the expectation that The Swarm would be a huge hit. But instead when The Swarm premiered it was loudly trumpeted as an all-time turkey and The Bees promptly sank without a trace. Which is not exactly a great shame as The Bees is not much better a film than The Swarm was. What can be said however is that it is at least a more honest B-movie than The Swam was.



THE SAVAGE BEES (1976)

Plot: As the video box tagline puts it, "A swarm of death is on the loose�And it's heading for New Orleans!" No, it's not a horde of Girls Gone Wild cameramen. Instead, it's a colony of easily pissed-off killer bees, and they're heading straight for the Crescent City just in time for Mardi Gras. The only ones who can stop them are a grizzled old sheriff, a medical examiner with a bad accent, his plucky entomologist girlfriend, and a guy who likes bees way, way too much.

The Savage Bees is one of several movies about killer bees that came out of the late 70's. At the time, the threat of Africanized honey bees (AKA "killer bees") seemed imminent, with local news broadcasts routinely reporting on the encroaching threat. It seemed like the invasion was almost upon us, and yet, here we are, nearly thirty years later, and I'm wondering what the heck ever became of those bees. Either we did a great job of dealing with the menace, or the threat was over-hyped and over-sensationalized by the media. Gee, which do you think it was?



THE DEADLY BEES

UK. 1967.

Director - Freddie Francis, Screenplay - Robert Bloch & Anthony Marriott, Based on the Novel A Taste of Honey by H.F. Heard, Producer - Max J. Rosenberg & Milton Subotsky, Photography - John Wilcox, Music - Wilfred Josephs, Special Effects - Michael Collins & John Mackey, Art Direction - Bill Constable. Production Company - Amicus.

Cast: Suzanna Leigh (Vicki Robbins), Frank Finlay (Manfred), Guy Doleman (Ralph Hargrove), Michael Ripper (David Hawkins), Catherine Finn (Mary Hargrove), Katy Wild (Doris Hawkins)

Plot: After pop singer Vicki Robbins collapses from nervous exhaustion, her doctor sends her to stay with Ralph Hargrove, an apiarist friend of his on remote Seagull Island, and recuperate. Following a series of bee attacks, she comes to believe that her host may be developing a deadly strain of killer bees, trained to home in on victims that have been daubed with a concentrated adrenalin serum.

There is yet to be such a thing as a good bee movie - that�s bee movie not B-movie. In fact The Golden Turkey Awards (1980) devotes an entire section to �The Most Badly Bumbled Bee Movie of All Time�, nominating this along with others such as Invasion of the Bee Girls (1972), The Killer Bees (1974), The Bees (1979) and the leader in the field, the notorious The Swarm (1978). The problems with bee movies seems to start in that bee effects are always extremely difficult to do with conviction and there has yet to be a film which makes them look like a lot of blurry dots moving in front of a camera lens. Further bee movies are something that most casts seem to lack the ability to conduct in straight-face.

One Time... 
I was outside doing yard work, and there was an old bag of lawn clippings that for some reason, hadn't been taken out with the trash pickup for quite a while. So I go to pick it up and there is like a nest of 200 bees in that mother. I ran away into the house, and was like "fuck this."

Later on, my mom looks outside and says "I thought I told you to put that out with the trash this week!!" I explained the situation, but she is a very stubborn woman, and decided to take it upon herself to haul the bag out. (She said "they're only bees")

So here's me looking out the window as my mom foolishly tries to haul the bag out, bees and all, laughing at first when she gets stung, then laughing not so much when she lets loose a scream that sounded like she had been stabbed in the face with a rusty dagger.

She ended up bringing a good amount of the bees in the house with her when she tried to flee, where they kept chasing her. (not me, hehe)

She cried for about three hours straight (" IT. (breathe in) HURTS (breathe in) SO (breathe in) MUUUUCH (sobbing) and the screams she made were so loud, that almost all of the neighbors called to inquire what in the hell had just happenned. Her screams were so pronounced that I really thought she needed an ambulence because she was dying somehow from these bee stings, but she kept waving me off when I would go to call.

Finally my aunt who is a nurse came over and determined that she was not, in fact, allergic to bee stings, but rather was just a big baby.


Long story short, listen to your kids, even if you think they're stupid.

UWF: The Bees would like to let you know that it's 'THEY'RE' not 'THEIR'.
